"The system permits meaningless choice. You can do what you want, as long as it doesn’t really matter · · · Only those who can be trusted not to make meaningful choices about their lives, are free to do as they please."
"The system is so totalising that any attempt to free oneself partially from it, inevitably ends in failure and pain, thus demonstrating the necessity of unfreedom"
"The system cannot present the horror of natural collapse, or its true cause, because it cannot perceive nature. What it can perceive is an opportunity to profit from collapse, an opportunity that goes by the name of ‘hope’. "
"The fact that a few miserable peasants can now afford Dunkin’ Donuts masks the fact that nature is not better off · · · It also masks the fact that by any meaningful measure of wealth, EVERYONE is dirt poor"
"Progress means a more comfortable decline · · · Advanced technology may comfort us for a time, but it always ends up crippling, exhausting, confusing, stupefying and enslaving us. We have now progressed to the point where human beings are redundant"
"There is, however, no need for the system to kill, enslave and steal as it did in the past, as people are trained to automatically hand over their labour, their intelligence and their love."
"What nobody can accept however, on the left or the right, is that democracy is inherently authoritarian, coercive and combative . The most destructive outcome of democracy is that it eliminates personal responsibility."
"The most schooled people on earth are generally the most stupid; the most heavily indoctrinated, the most insensitive, the most conceited and the most helpless"
"A massive amount of academic effort goes into normalising slavemaster relations · · · Today, however, in the ‘late-capitalist’ phase of the system, we are not just commanded by external masters, but also by internalised, self-directed oppression"
"The system permits you to overcome boredom through the system through access to privilege, and through consumption of narcotics. Privilege and narcotics are sickening, but they are preferable to overcoming boredom outside of the system, which aren't permitted or even considered"
"As the system colonises more and more experience, more and more of what we do takes on the alienating and exploitative character of work. This makes people more unhappy, more stressed and more stupid; which generates more opportunities for the market, and therefore more work."
"The late-capitalist system must also promote the idea that all its people are radically different to each other. This is also an illusion. These illusions are called diversity. Actual diversity is a threat of the first order to the system and must be stamped out where it occurs"
"Actual science is useful and interesting, but impotent to explain anything of importance to men and women; including its own origins and limits · · · Basing society on the literal illusions of science leads to mass ignorance and existential insecurity"
"socialism, capitalism, feminism, sexism, scientism, relativism, theism and atheism are all religions · · · Religions violently police the borders of belief (orthodoxy), violently persecute non-belief (heterodoxy), and aspire to state power."
"The reason that the system cannot accept the true cause of ‘mental illness’ is because actually curing it entails the revolutionary act of improving reality"
"This mission, which takes man thirty or forty years to realise, is what we understand as ‘becoming a man’. Women do not become women in the same way. She embodies a primary intelligence which he, merely clever, strives, for much of his life, to realise"
"The system is meaningless. It only understands expansion. Meaning comes from conscious being and purposeful doing, both of which are impossible within the system. The perfect system is comprised entirely of unconscious people performing meaningless tasks."
"The system presents itself as the only choice, the only way humans can possibly live. Nothing else can be seriously attempted, or seriously suggested; because the system is reality itself."
